Buy now or wait for a better dvd player. 250


I've got 250-300 dollars for a dvd player. Gift certificates to Tweeter. It seems that the quality and versatilty of players is going up while the prices are dropping. Should I buy now or wait. Thanks for the info.

If you have a HD-capable tv; get a progressive scan dvd player. There is quite a dif. between reg dvd and prg.scn. There is one for 149.00 bucks.(true) There is also the Panasonic rp56/300 bucks.The Sony ns700( or something 700) less than 300 --(on line 250) You know when the money starts to burn a hole; your leg gets awfully hot. It's spend it; or call the FD.
What player do you have now? How old? You could stock up on DVDs movies instead. Newer players have progressive scan, but that may end up being a doubed edge sword. Some plasma projectors and TV's with some type of scaler or line doubler technology built-in will go all to hell with a progressive scan player. It may end up being obsolete depending where TV technology goes. And DVD looks good without it anyway on a standard set. Is your DVD player so old, it has trouble player the newer dual-layer discs? The newer machine's laser is designed to play these.
